17、oking at how CAVs can help people less able to travel. Were on the cusp of one of the most profound changes ever to happen to our transport system,enabled by new technologies such as self-driving vehicles, said Iain Forbes,head of the Centre for CAVs. These changes could transform the lives of some

18、disabled or older people who currently find it tough to use the transport system. However,we wont get there unless those designing the technology engage properly with a wide range of transport users.That is why the government is investing in projects such as FLOURISH，which bring technology companies

19、 together with transport users to help ensure our future transport system works for everyone. FLOURISH adopted a user-centred approach to design and development,with the needs of older adults being the focus of their work.Several trials with older adults have been held over the past three years usin

20、g simulated environments and self-driving pods,similar to cars. One of the participants in the trials,Robin,a 76-year-old former BBC journalist says：Its going to be quite awful when I cant get in a car and go where I want to.Its all very well using the bus,but your friends dont necessarily live by a

23、erless cars.

They often find it difficult to programme the computer with their bad arthritis and poor eyesight

24、.Thus,if we can provide them with a voice recognition way of controlling their journey,that is probably a good idea.According to Iain,what is the purpose of investing in projects like FLOURISH？ _ A.

How can CAVs help people less able to travel in the future？C. FLOURISH makes self-driving cars beneficial to older people.D.
